School Year Wrap-Up Ideas For Parents (TV segment)

In case you haven’t noticed, the school year is quickly winding down! Last night on CHEX Daily, I chatted with hosts Teresa Kaszuba and Mike Judson about some things to keep in mind as your child’s school year draws to a close, such as:

• the number one question to ask your child’s teacher before the year ends 
• if you should be making requests for next year’s class/teacher
• an idea for what you can do with all that artwork that comes home
• the best way to thank the teacher (with a SavvyMom.ca idea; my free printable can be found here)
• some last-day-of-school traditions

I really went wild with my look for the last CHEX Daily appearance of the 2014/2015 school year, as I noted on Instagram (seen below):

My idea of risk-taking: wearing my hair up on TV! (I much prefer to wear it down, as anyone who knows me in real-Iife or online would be able to tell!) The dress is amazing though: $38 from Simon’s! Maybe I should show it in another pic…

By the way, here’s how my 9-year-old’s thank you letter turned out – please don’t tell her teacher!

So, enjoy these last few days! It’s barely a week until my last-day tradition, when I will read Thank You, Mr. Falker and cry in front of my class. Good times.
